Dear Parents & Students,
 
With August's arrival, we are just weeks away from welcoming you back! As long as York Region stays in stage 3, the school will reopen for in-person delivery come September.
You are free to choose to continue or switch between online and in-person lessons - for more information on accessing online sessions & our updated school policies on masks/face shields, please scroll:)

We would also like to extend a sincere farewell to students who will not be back in September. This year has presented many challenges for everyone, and we would like to thank you for your time growing with us.

Complimentary Face Shields
Students will each be recieving one complimentary face shield for the entire school year. Kids' friendly designs will be available for our youngest students (see to the left for the examples) .
Please ensure to bring it to every class in order to
